Water Week 2022

From March 21, 2022 to March 26, 2022

Online and in person.

From 21 to 26 March 2022, the Lyon Urban School, the graduate school H2O'Lyon and their partners are organising a water week on the theme of groundwater, to match Unesco's World Water Day: an exciting programme in person or online, consisting of webinars, workshops, seminars, performance art, etc. Register now!


Groundwater, making the invisible visible


The Lyon Urban School (EUL), the graduate school H2O'Lyon and their partners are offering a week of events on the water cycle, to better understand the issues surrounding this resource, which is necessary for all life on earth and in a context of strong human impact and global change.

For this first edition, we propose a programme on groundwater, the theme of World Water Day 2022. An invisible resource but whose impact is visible everywhere and whose management and awareness is a major issue for the future.

We will discuss the vital role of groundwater, awareness of its importance, the notion of urban permeability/infiltration, green/blue networks, biodiversity of these ecosystems with examples of national and international research and innovation.

In addition to these reflections, we propose an associated programme (in orange) on other aspects of the water cycle and our relationship and impact on this resource.

Registration is free and compulsory (see links after the Programme)
Webinars are in simultaneous French-English translation.

The webinars can be taken into account in the training courses of the E2M2 and Chemistry of Lyon Doctoral schools
